Questions
"when was the first time you were depressed?"
depressed depressed?
or just plain sad.
because i wouldn't be able to answer for either
the sadness has followed me
clenched onto me like a needy child for as long as i can remember
too many dreadful teary nights
I've lost count
at one point it was a nightly routine
something i waited for
expected
like my sadness
nothing new
pain,sleepless nights,never ending thoughts
they follow me
so instead of asking when was the first time i was depressed,
ask when was the last time i was genuinely happy.
